Will & Grace's Megan Mullally unwittingly got herself into a very expensive predicament while shopping at a Valentino store in NYC, she revealed on a recent episode of Conan while promoting her latest movie, Why Him?

When host Conan O'Brien asked her if she likes buying gifts for the holidays, Megan got very sarcastic. "Oh, I'm a master shopper, master bargain hunter, if any of you guys want to rent me out to buy your last-minute Christmas gifts," she stated. "Let me just tell you about my prowess as a shopper, it's pretty astounding."

Megan told the story about a quick shopping run she did with her Nancy and Beth band partner, Stephanie, before catching a flight home. "We were staying in a hotel and right across the street was a Valentino. And I say, 'Hey, let's just pop over there, we're not going to buy anything because it's too expensive, but we'll just go over there and pretend we're rich," she shared. "We tried on a bunch of stuff and then we were just about to leave and I saw this navy blue hoodie — zips up the front, has a little butterfly on the back — and I thought, 'Well, that's cute, maybe I can buy something!'"

Assuming the sweatshirt — which she clarified was not made of gold and looks like something from the Gap — was cheaper than most of the other things in the store, she brought it up to the register and presented it to the cashier. "I should have known something was up because the manager of the store came in from another floor to meet me," she explained. "I thought maybe he was a fan of Will & Grace, who knows."

She must not have seen the price while swiping her card, because she was shocked when she got home to L.A. to see how much the zip-up actually cost. "I'm unpacking my bag and I pull out the hoodie and I'm like, 'This is so cute, this little hoodie from Valentino.' And I look at the price tag — $4,000!" she said. "I tried to return it and guess what they said? 'No. No thank you.'"
